As the convoy departed, the vast open space suddenly fell silent, and the girl's clear, cool voice was particularly penetrating under the moonlight.
As soon as he finished speaking, a heavier breathing sound could be clearly heard from behind the rocky hill.
However, the breathing sound only lasted for a moment before it subsided again.
Xiao Jinhan was also somewhat surprised. Hua'er had never practiced martial arts, yet her five senses were even more advanced than Yu Feng and his group, and were almost on par with his own.
You can hear the breathing of someone a mile away clearly.
He glanced at the rocky mountain and called out, "Come out, all of you, and meet your new master!"
Su Hua's almond-shaped eyes widened slightly. So it was an acquaintance?
She looked up and saw two slender figures emerge from behind the rocky hill. Their attire was very similar to that of the black-clad subordinates who had just left, both dressed in black outfits.
The difference is that the two women did not conceal their faces, and it was obvious at a glance that they were both girls!
They were unlike the girls we usually saw; their black hair stood up high, they exuded a heroic spirit, and even their walk was a dashing and unrestrained stride.
In the blink of an eye, they had walked from the rocky mountain a mile away to right in front of them.
Immediately, he knelt on one knee and performed a deep bow: "Your subordinate greets you, young lady!"
Su Hua paused in her curiosity, staring at the two people on the ground, momentarily stunned. Xiao Jinhan had just mentioned a new master who was actually referring to herself!
The man glanced at her with a smile and gently reminded her, "Hua'er, have you forgotten what I told you a few days ago? I'll find you two helpers who know some martial arts. They can run errands for you when you need something, and give you a massage when you don't have to..."
"I remember! I remember..." Su Hua quickly took over the conversation. Such a spirited young lady, it would be a waste of her talents to actually massage her back and legs.
She stepped forward and helped the two up, then looked them over carefully and said with a smile, "My surname is Su, and my given name is Hua. May I ask how you two are addressed?"
The two men clasped their hands and said in unison, "Our name is Danfeng (Qingdai). From this day forward, we belong to you, Miss. Please bestow upon us a name!"
“Danfeng, Qingdai… nice names!” Su Hua nodded with a smile. “Our Su family is just an ordinary farming family in Qingshui County. We don’t follow the old ways of aristocratic families in the capital, so we don’t need to change the name.”
Similarly, there aren't many rules in the Su family. As long as you work hard, you won't be shortchanged in the future.
As she said this, her tone changed slightly, "There is only one thing I must say upfront: I, Su Hua, cannot tolerate any dishonest person. As long as someone is loyal, if they cannot be, they can go back now."
"Don't worry, Miss, Danfeng will never betray you. If that day ever comes, Danfeng will be at your mercy." Upon hearing this, Danfeng immediately patted his chest.
As he spoke, he couldn't help but glance at the girl's fair hands, then at her feet, his round eyes sparkling.
These seemingly weak limbs crippled the Wei family master and servants in just a few moves, just like their old master. Only someone who couldn't see the light would become a traitor.
"Qingdai is the same. Now that she's here, she won't leave or betray her master!" Qingdai also bowed in agreement.
I originally thought that this trip out of the capital was to serve the young lady, but the young lady just now showed that she was no ordinary girl from a peasant family, and even the young ladies from wealthy families in the capital could not compare.
No wonder their old master liked them.
Su Hua's senses were sharp, and she saw the expressions on their faces. She had thought they would arrive in a few days, but she hadn't expected their first meeting to be like this.
Xiao Jinhan glanced at the girl with affection, then his eyes flickered slightly, "Did you two see Yu Yu in Kyoto?"
"I saw him, but not in Kyoto, but in Wuxi Prefecture. We met him at the city gate this afternoon when we entered the city." Danfeng nodded, a strange look flashing across his face.
"Yu Yu said he was going to walk his dog now and told us to go ahead."
"Walking the dog?" Xiao Jinhan raised an eyebrow.
Previously, he asked Yu Yu to send the viper scales to Tianyi Workshop to sew a soft armor for Hua'er, but now almost a month has passed and there is still no sign of the soft armor. Instead, he went to walk the dog.
Su Hua couldn't help but chuckle. "When did Yu Yu buy a dog? Back in the village, he only liked to play with Da Bai and Da Niu, and he always ignored Xiao Hei."
“It wasn’t a dog we bought.” Upon hearing this, Qingdai glanced at the man out of the corner of her eye and said slowly, “It’s a dog from the Prince of Yan’s mansion, or even, it might not even be a dog.”
"The Prince of Yan's residence?" Xiao Jinhan stammered. "How did he get involved with people from the Prince of Yan's residence?"
Qingdai shook her head. "This subordinate doesn't know either. We entered Wuxi Prefecture in the evening and happened to run into Yu Yu at the city gate. She said that she was followed by the Yan Prince's dog all the way from the capital to Wuxi Prefecture."
Su Hua was completely confused. "Zichen, who is this Prince Yan? Does he have some kind of grudge against you?"
She hadn't seen Yu Yu for a long time and thought he had been sent to the Southern Frontier by Xiao Jinhan, but she didn't expect him to have gone to the capital.
“The Prince of Yan is the current emperor’s younger brother. We have no grudges against him; on the contrary, we have some connection with him.”
Xiao Jinhan looked up at her and said slowly, "When my mother was alive, she had a good relationship with the Princess Consort of Yan. They were close friends. However, eighteen years have passed, and their relationship has long since faded."
"I see." Su Hua nodded thoughtfully. "Then should we go and help Yu Yu?"
At this moment, she began to understand the meaning of the saying that there were many noble families in the capital, and that a single plaque could be smashed and affect five or six royal relatives and nobles.
Just as Wei Jianjia left, another so-called Prince of Yan arrived, who was also the emperor's younger brother.
"No need." Xiao Jinhan waved his hand and led her towards the horses. "Yu Yu is just average in other aspects, but he has a decent lightness skill that even his maternal grandfather praised. If he wants to walk the dog now, let him."
